By Alicia Jennings / NBC News
Cindy Sheehan and other antiwar activists held a press conference today at the Oak Bluffs School, where the White House press corps is working as its reports on President Obama during his vacation in Martha's Vineyard
Sheehan said that she's opposing Obama the same way she opposed George W. Bush. "The facade has changed but policies remain the same," she told reporters. "Integrity in our movement means we have to do same for Obama as we did for Bush."
"We're here to make the wars unpopular again," she added. "Because if we were right to oppose it under Bush, we're right to oppose it under Obama."
Sheehan continued, "While the Obamas are here on vacation, people are still dying. There's no vacation from body bags. And the families of dead soldiers will never be able to truly enjoy a vacation again.
"Just because he's better than Bush doesn't sell me, because practically everybody in the world is better than Bush."
